    Cupbop on steroids. Spicy pork is my favorite. The beef bulgogi is also a good option if you want to avoid the spice. The meat is tender and well seasoned. Lunch Combo is GOATed and has a lot of food for a guy who's bulking like me.

    Great food and service! The Galbi and beef tongue was really good and the food came out quickly. The owner was very nice and even gave us some bakery goods to go!

    Great evening at KOU, so glad they opened this location in Orem! The quality of food was great, and so was the service! Everything came out so quickly, and our server Brandon was really patient and fun with us! Also they had a great student discount for this month, so that definitely made it a pleasant surprise for me and my friends! It was bright and clean inside, with a very cool layout. I hope that this place gets the hype that the Murray location does!

    I had higher expectations. The cuts of meat were solid three stars-but definitely behind the quality of two other nearby Korean BBQ restaurants. The bulgogi and Hawaiian steak were high points. For having Korean ownership the kimchi was really disappointing and a low point and the soondubu was frankly terrible. The service was really friendly and the ambiance was great.

    Went for my birthday and honestly loved this place! Trying new spots is so scary in Utah bc most are a miss but this was place was so good!! The host was quick to get us sat on a Friday night and we were greeted by our server pretty quick too! The food was really good quality and sides were 10/10! Wasn't a fan of the fried chicken but everything else was so good! Loved that the manager or owner was going around also checking up on tables and making sure we were good! Great service! Definitely recommend!!

    This Korean cook-it-at-the-table restaurant is so delicious. I like the lamb, sirloin, and pork. It's a fun family experience!

    Great experience!! We had a party of 7 and decided to dine here, however, we arrived near closing…read moretime. Upon arrival, they were very pleasant and the manager explained that the kitchen was closing in 20 mins. We were told it was not a problem and we just needed place our order fairly quick. We decided to dine in and wasted no time deciding what to order. Our server and the manager were very accommodating and we never felt rushed. Excellent Service!! They have a good size menu and they offer sushi specials during the day. If you decide on ramon, you pick your ramon displayed on a wall and you can create your own, pretty cool idea. The dining tables are nice and they all have hot pots. We decided on sushi, everything was delicious. They even brought a complimentary appetizer which was very good. The sushi was presented very well, it was fresh, and very good. Place ROCKS!!!

    This was my first time here, and I loved it!! The hot pots were such a fun and unique experience,…read moreand all of the food was delicious! I enjoyed the wagyu, ramen noodles, and all the veggies! Eating it with the tonkatsu broth was great, but I also loved dipping it in the sesame and teriyaki sauce. So many different ways to experience it! The cream cheese wontons were also a hit. The appetizers are included in the all you can eat price, so try them! The big downside to Mr. Shabu is that it's so expensive. I would come back all the time if it weren't for the price. You have to do "all-you-can-eat" for the hot pots, and it costs over $30 per person. Because of that, I probably won't return anytime soon and it makes me very sad.
